My condolences to the entire family, Garnet and I spent many good time together throughout the past 40 years. He was a great guy and good friend.
My condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of working with Garnet at Coldwell Banker, he was always kind and a great mentor. He will be missed.
I just saw Garnet’s obituary on the internet and wanted to give my condolences. It was good to meet Garnet again after knowing him from school days. It was a good experience teaching Heather and Garnet’s interaction with Heather’s success was important. It was also good to meet Donna. I know what it is like to lose a beloved husband and go through missing him. He has been gone 20 years. I wish you the best. Deanna Jensen
